With a bachelor’s in computer science engineering, Johnny held various technology roles before joining F5. Tapped by a former manager to build out a complex lab for the company, Johnny was intrigued by the opportunity to work at the fast-growing F5—where six former colleagues already worked. He joined when the company was still small, over a decade ago.

Each morning, after checking automation requests that came in overnight, Johnny prioritizes bug fixes and code failure responses, delegating to other engineers on his team. Then he moves on to daily meetings, which usually mean planning the upcoming releases. When he isn’t preventing system failures, Johnny works on exciting cloud solutions projects—like developments for system chaining.
